Chapter 44: Papermaking

CHAPTER XLIV

"I think it is still up to the Feng patriarch to continue to serve as the tribal patriarch, everyone discusses everything together, and when there is something that everyone can't agree on, we all let the Feng patriarch decide. "Hannam-do.

"That's all there is to it. Seeing that Han Nan resolutely refused to serve as the patriarch, Qingshan Feng had no choice but to accept this proposal. Fortunately, in this way, part of her responsibilities have also been shared, and according to her temperament, she is happy to be idle.

The four of Baili Leiming were also very satisfied with this result. After joining the Qingshan tribe, they naturally couldn't expect to become the patriarch, as long as they could still have the right to speak in the tribe, they would meet their requirements.

After the discussion was completed, Han Nam returned to his room to sort out the harvest this time.

The greater the risk, the greater the benefit. This business scripture from the previous life is still applicable in this world.

The war seemed extremely dangerous, but it was also very rewarding. On the animal skin he found from Yin Shanmu, he recorded the white bone resurrection technique. The White Bone Resurrection Technique is extremely powerful, and when Feng Feiyu perfects it, if he can learn this kind of witchcraft, he will also have the ability to protect himself in the future.

Then he also got the Mochizuki rhino horn that can command the beasts. With this Mochizuki rhino horn, the tribe will have more strength in both defense and attack in the future. Although he can't use the Mochizuki rhino horn now, he can only put it on Feng Feiyu. But she has always been in the tribe, and it is the same on her as it is on herself.

On top of that, the tribe gained 2,000 captives, and the four tribes of Baili Thundering joined the Qingshan tribe as a result, causing the tribe's population to expand to 4,000 people at once. The labor problem that I had been worried about was solved. And with an abundant workforce, many things can be done conveniently.

The war is really a huge profit!" Han Nan couldn't help but sigh. Thinking about this harvest, Han Nan couldn't help but wonder if he could lead people to sweep other tribes.

......

The next day, the tribe was busy with the new entrants.

Baili Lei Ming and the four people went back to the tribe and migrated the tribe to the Qingshan tribe. And yesterday's 2,000 captives also began to build houses under the leadership of Qingshan Feng and arrange their places to live.

Seeing Qingshan Feng so busy, Han Nan was glad in his heart: Fortunately, he didn't accept the position of patriarch yesterday, otherwise he should be the one who is busy now.

"Wizard Master......" A member of the clan walked up to Han Nan and said.

Han Nam had never seen this person before, so he thought he should have been a prisoner yesterday. He nodded at him and said, "What's the matter?"

This person looked a little nervous in front of Han Nan, and said, "Master Wizard, what are these things we are making now?"

Han Nan saw that his hands were covered with mud and he was beating adobe. It turned out that Qingshan Feng was just taking them to work, but he didn't tell them what the adobe was used for, Han Nan smiled and said, "This is called adobe, and it is used to build houses." Promise...... You see......"

Han Nan pointed to the adobe house that had been built and said, "That is the adobe house, and after the house is built, you will live in it." ”

"Give us a ......," the man stammered, as if he was not quite sure what he was hearing. They had already seen these houses yesterday and were already very curious. But as captives, although Han Nan promised them the same as the tribesmen, they were always a little timid in their hearts, so they didn't dare to ask.

Now when I heard Han Nan say that I would live in such a house in the future, I was excited and apprehensive. I suddenly felt that it was even a good thing to be a blessing in disguise and become a prisoner of the Qingshan tribe.

Baili Lei Ming and several people also took their clansmen to the valley. Originally, there were only more than 200 people from the Qingshan tribe in the valley, which seemed a little deserted. Suddenly so many people joined, everyone was busy working, and the atmosphere in the valley was in full swing.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Han Nan felt a little relieved. Everyone is busy right now, and we can't be idle. Thinking about Han Nam returning to his house.

For several days, Han Nam didn't go out, busy with his own affairs.

At dusk on this day, Han Nan hung a piece of white paper on a branch and gently wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead.

In the past few days, Han Nan has been thinking about papermaking. Han Nam originally thought that now that winter has arrived, everyone will not need to, and they will no longer be able to go out hunting. Taking advantage of this time, he was ready to sort out some of the knowledge in his mind and pass it on to his people.

If you want to educate, you definitely need words, but there are no words in this world, and some witchcraft runes can be seen as the rudiments of words, but they are only in the hands of wizards. So Han Nan thought that he was inventing words. Well, it can also be said to be a plagiarism of the words of the previous life......

But words also need recording tools, and witchcraft runes are recorded on animal skins, which naturally has a lot of inconvenience, so Han Nan thought about creating paper.

The page that is now drying on the branches is the result of Han Nan's labor in the past few days. This piece of paper is very rough, and there are traces of turf on it, which is naturally worthless in the world before Han Nan, but in this world, even if it is worth ten thousand gold, it is not too much.

In ancient China, the characters were engraved on bamboo slips, and it was naturally very inconvenient to engrave words on bamboo slips, which also led to the ancient Chinese characters being very streamlined and square. In the West, the characters are written on sheepskin, which also has many inconveniences. And until China created papermaking, this kind of convenient material and can be preserved for a long time appeared, in fact, it was a great progress in civilization, so that the civilization of the predecessors could be left to future generations.

Now this inconspicuous blank paper, in fact, Hannan has shortened the process of civilization by more than a thousand years. If you wait for the people here to slowly explore the invention, I don't know how long it will take.

Just as he was thinking, the courtyard door creaked open, and Aoyamano walked in. Chong Han Nan said: "Nan, you haven't been out for the past few days, what are you doing?"

"No, that's the ......," Han Nan said, pointing to the white paper on the tree.

"What is this?" asked Aoyama curiously.

"It's something we use in our hometown to record, and we call it 'paper'. Han Nanxuan said to Aoyama Ye at the key point, and then said his plan to decide to invent writing. Of course, he will not say that he invented it himself, but he also said: the words used in his hometown, he copied them down and made it convenient for his clansmen to use.

Qingshan Ye didn't understand Han Nan's words very well, but seeing what he said solemnly, he could also appreciate the importance of this matter in Han Nan's heart, so he said, "Then I'll call the clansmen to come over and help do it together." ”

Han Nan said: "No need, now that the tribe has increased so many people, everyone has a lot of things to do." I'm not in a hurry to do this, just do it slowly. Can you help me if you'd like?"

Aoyama glanced at him and said, "Okay then." ”

After the paper dried, the two cut it together. Han Nan picked up a piece of charcoal from the fire, wrote two words on the paper, and handed it to Aoyamano, "This is my name." ”

Aoyamano looked at the two words on the paper like ghostly drawings, and felt a little magical in her heart, she rubbed the handwriting on it and said, "Tell me quickly, how do you write my name?"

Han Nan smiled, gently hugged her waist, held her hand and said, "Come on, let me tell you, there are twenty-eight ways to write the word 'wild'. ”
